A SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft with two NASA astronauts on board docked with the International Space Station Sunday. The spacecraft, named Endeavour by astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley, docked with the Harmony module of the ISS at 10:16 am EDT (1416 GMT) Sunday. Hatches separating the Dragon and ISS opened about three hours later. Behnken and Hurley will remain on the station for up to four months to help operate the station, with their return dependent on the health of the Crew Dragon spacecraft and the status of the next mission, Crew-1, scheduled for launch no earlier than August 30.
